True Metallic Metal BASE - Sapphire Blue

Vallejo True Metallic Metal BASE - Sapphire Blue

Sapphire Blue is a base metallic tone from the True Metallic Metal (TMM) line by Vallejo. A water-thinnable acrylic with a fine metal pigment gives the surface the look of a sapphire blue metal alloy. The TMM line is systematic: every family has a BASE tone (full coverage), a LiGHT lightener, a satin non-metallic SHADE and an airbrush variant. BASE is the carrying layer of the effect. The package holds 18 ml.

Use

• Shake the bottle thoroughly before use - the metal pigment settles to the bottom.
• The best effect comes on a smooth, dark surface, ideally over a black or dark primer.
• Applied with a brush as well as an airbrush; thinned with water or with a Vallejo acrylic thinner.
• Apply metallic paints toward the end - they are harder to mask and to overspray.
• The effect is deepened with the LiGHT lightener and the satin SHADE from the same family.

Who it is for

For painters of figures, fantasy and science fiction models, weapons, armor, accessories and jewelry who want a colored metal look without painting the metal by hand. Suitable for beginners as well as experienced modelers.

A non-toxic water-based paint with no odor. Store at room temperature out of the reach of children and close it after use.
